Sounds nice!

: Well, it would be more significant if those stringers weren't in plane with
: the gunwale stringers. True, they will add stiffness, but not as much as
: they would if I made a peaked deck.

Well, I was thinking that if you bent them down toward the chines, you'd get some triangulation effect. They'd be below the gunwales at the bow and above them at the masik.
